We already got to see Oliver again, but the finale wasn’t able to bring back Supergirl or the Legends to give them one last time to shine. Just as conspicuously absent from the finale as Cisco were the other members of the Arrowverse. Cisco is frustratingly absent, due apparently to a scheduling conflict on the part of Carlos Valdes, not on the part of the writers. Just as soon as the evil Speedsters appear, so do Flash’s allies, including Nora–but not Bart–and all of the active members of Team Flash. But that makes me wonder, didn’t the writers’ room at the time see that? What did they think about it? Zoom and Godspeed appear first, followed by Reverse-Flash, who points out that Zoom’s story was disappointingly similar to his own. The meeting scene is actually pretty funny.

The Negative Speed Force is promising him a new life that favors him and makes him the hero. In a lot of ways, it felt like any other season finale or premiere for the series.Įddie Thawne has returned and established his resentment toward the life Barry and Iris have made together–he sacrificed himself to stop a nigh-unstoppable villain, making his sacrifice meaningless in his own eyes. It didn’t really get any extra budget, either. When you watch a network long enough, you start to figure out where the commercials go in episodes, and this finale didn’t get any extra time than any other weekly episode. It feels like the CW network barely cared–one of their flagship shows is ending, but it doesn’t feel like they gave it any special allowances. The showrunners did the best they could given the circumstances, and I’m happy with the result when taking that into consideration. Friends old and new gather for an epic battle to save Central City, one last time. The Flash (Grant Gustin), the fastest man alive, is tasked with his greatest challenge yet, to save the timeline and save existence. That’s almost an impossible order after all of this time, so how did the Scarlet Speedster do? Spoilers follow for The Flash Season 9, Episode 13, “A New World, Part Four.” “A New World, Part Four” This is the final episode, meant to give characters and fans alike closure on all the stories told during that time. For nine years, The Flash has been a part of my life for part of each of those years.
When The Flash premiered on October 7, 2014, I was 32 years old.
